Chapter 203: Heavy Rain

With a "crack," the booming sound of thunder exploded almost directly in the ear, startling Manbao, who jumped in her dream, then groggily opened her eyes just as a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating almost half of the heavens. It was only after the lightning that the rumbling thunder followed.

Manbao was so scared that she started to cry.

Zhou Silang in the neighboring room was also awakened, the thunder was so loud he couldn't hear Manbao crying, but he somehow knew she was frightened and quickly jumped out of bed, threw on his clothes, and ran out.

Lately, because of the heat, Manbao had been sleeping with the windows open, with just the mosquito net lowered to keep out the mosquitoes.

Zhou Silang rushed in and saw the mosquito net pulled back, Manbao sitting on the bed, wiping her tears by herself.

He hurried to embrace her, "I'll take you to your mother."
